Abstract: A process for producing a multiplicity of microfluidic arrangements from a plate-shaped composite structure and an atomiser which is provided with such nozzle arrangements is proposed. Each arrangement has a groove structure which forms flow channels and the dimensions of which are in the micrometer range. The lines for optional subsequent mechanical separation of bridging groove structures are joined to each other and are partly or completely filled with a filling medium before mechanical machining. The medium is selected so that it is not removed from the groove structures either by the mechanical machining or by aids used during mechanical machining. Afterwards, however, the filling medium is removed from the groove structures by suitable measures. The groove structures are thereby prevented from becoming blocked due to mechanical contaminants.

Abstract: The present invention provides for improved contrast in the transmissive mode of a transflective liquid crystal display having a rear stack polarizing means (302) which is transmissive for light having a desired polarization and reflective for light having an opposite, undesired polarization. The contrast is improved due to enhancements of the black state provided by the inclusion of a reflection preventing means (306). The reflection preventing means is arranged between the transflector (301) and the rear stack polarizer (302), and serves to stop light transmitted through the rear stack polarizer (302) towards the transflector (301) from being reflected by the transflector (301) back to the rear polarizer (302). Thereby undesired reflections having wrong polarization are stopped from being transmitted through the transflector (301) and thus from affecting the transmissive mode black state of the display.
